Superman is already one of my most anticipated films of 2025, but James Gunn’s latest announcement excites me even more. DC is coming off a bad stretch of box office flops, including The Flash and Joker: Folie Deux. Despite all of that, anticipation for Superman is high. The film will launch the DCU, which will hopefully have better results than the DCEU timeline and its awkward conclusion, and is directed by Gunn, who has an excellent track record with comic book movies, including The Suicide Squad and the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise.
